The Beginning
ISO was founded in 1946 by delegates from 25 countries and begann operating in February 1947. Today, it consists of a network of over 150 national bodies representing standardization in their countries.
In June 2005 ISO TMB (Technical Management Board) established a Working Group which was asked to write ISO 31000 and to revise ISO/IEC Guide 73:2002 which became ISO Guide 73:2009. ISO 31000:2009 Risk Management – Principles and Guidelines was published on November 15th, 2009. It was broadly leaning on the Australian New Zealand standard AS/NZS 4360.
In February 2011 ISO TMB established a Project Committee (PC) to develop guidance in the implementation of ISO 31000 and in August 2012 it converted the PC into a full Technical Committee (TC) which became ISO/TC 262 and finalized the work of the PC. ISO/TR 31004:2013 Risk management – Guidance for the implementation of ISO 31000 was published on October 15th, 2013.
